With at least one cutaneous ulcer on the foot (including ulcers on the lower legs) and not healing for at least 4 weeks. The largest diabetic foot ulcer will be selected as target ulcer. If two or more ulcers have the largest size, the one with worst grade will be selected. If two or more ulcers have the largest size and grade, the one with longest duration will be selected.
The target ulcer is classified as grade 1 to 3 ulcer according to Wagner Grading System and with ulcer size of 1 cm2 to 36 cm2 (Grade 3 ulcer subject may enter the study only if after debridement, the abscess of target ulcer is under control at investigator's discretion and osteomyelitis does not present)
Diabetic foot ulcers should be free of any necrosis or infection in any soft tissue and bone tissue;
Subject has signed the written informed consent form

Exclusion Criteria:

With active osteomyelitis
With target ulcer size decreased by at least 30% after at least 2 weeks of standard-of-care-only period or any other recorded regular therapy either before Screening visit or after completing Initial Phase
With poor nutritional status (albumin < 2g/dl), poor diabetic control (HbA1c > 12%), a leukocyte counts < 2,000/mm3, abnormal liver function (AST, ALT>3 x upper limit of normal range) within 14 days before Screening visit or 28 days before Randomization visit Note: HbA1c: hemoglobin A1c; AST: aspartate aminotransferase; ALT: alanine aminotransferase
Requiring treatment with systemic corticosteroids, immunosuppressive or chemotherapeutic agents

ABI between 0.4 and 0.6 (inclusive) and not received appropriate treatment for improving venous and arterial insufficiency Note: Subjects with ABI between 0.4 and 0.6 (inclusive) and having received appropriate surgical or endovenous/endovascular therapy for improving venous and arterial insufficiency considered by investigators such as valvuloplasty, angioplasty, or bypass grafting will be eligible to enter the study at investigator's discretion.
